  1. Worst case scenario just re adhesive it or get another kit. You pay to play with mods like this i suppose. Iv notices it doesnt seem to be as much of an issue on Challengers at least from what I've read it seems most people have the issues on the Chargers for whatever reason.

  2. I put a widebody kit on my charger hellcat too.. At frist I tried 3m tape that came with the kit but it didn't hold properly after a couple pulls lol. Im currently using an adhesive and overall it looks good, just have to adjust the flare on the driver side fender like his. Going to switch to a bracket though, i don't want to cut the fenders.

  3. I love v8s so much, it doesnt matter if youre de-badged, by your exhaust note i know if its a 5.7, 6.4, or a 6.2. 5.7 weirdly enough has a deeper tone than 6.4 or 6.2. It sounds great

  4. Good things comes to those who wait? Dodge is offering widebody kits with warranties. No one seems to be reviewing/talking about them though?

  5. Same problem on my 2018 Daytona. No regrets love the kit. The look is totally bad ass. Exact same as yours with 305 35 r20s. I actually had to trim up the flares on the inside lip along with the flare themselves. Also the 2 sided foam tape doesn't hold well and I had to use some high quality epoxy based glue. Mine still lightly rubs on bumps. Some further trimming and gluing. Possibly needing to come up with some type of push in clip fastening system.

  6. Best part
    You can drive it longer then 2 hours
    And once she drinks that petro
    5 minute top off and back to slashing tires or u can go wait for three hours to charge.

  7. Had my fenders cut when I had my Chrome/Carbon WB installed, it’s 17 RT Scatpack Charger. Initially I had it lowered on H&R, it was extremely low to the point I hit a deep dip in the road & damaged my front & rear bumper. I went back OEM, riding on 285/40 & 315/35 Atturo 850 tires and never had any sort of rubbing, it’s been close to a year now. If I would’ve never cut the fenders I’d be up shyt creek

  8. Low pros give you a harsher ride. Just run a tire with a bit of a stretch and ditch the fender liners. I've heard of people taking a heat gun to fender liners and molding it to clear tires. Another thing you can do is run a tad bit of camber. Something tolerable for those cars. If you don't have a set of those adjustable upper control arms by Specialty Products by now, get on it! If you run a decent set of suspension, you can adjust damper to prevent bottoming out.

  9. I decided to skip the widebody kit because of issues like this and because there's no way I'm cutting into the fenders. It looks incredible, but I just don't want to mess with the drivability of the car. Vicrez sells a 2020 front/rear conversion kit for narrow body's now – basically the new model look without the fender flares. So I'm seriously thinking of going that route.
